As part of UC Berkeley's costume class, co-designer Vincent Chau (vincent171@berkeley.edu) and I created this costume for Erica Gillespie's performance in the Berkeley Fall Choreography Showcase. 

This project required a lot of collaboration between Chau and I. We started with a general concept, created several individual designs, and then worked together to create a final design vision. Because this show was a zero budget production, we then had to coordinate with the costume shop to create a final version of the costume that fit our vision while also being able to be compiled out of existing fabric and costume pieces available to us.
